Hi please consider. This works with 2.30, 2.34, 2.38, 2.39, 2.40, 2.41 and current master head. (tested x64 and some RV)
There are 4 changes in binutils we work around. - zstd compressed debug sections - libsframe added - init_disassemble_info() change - libbfd.a is only present in .lib directory in newer binutils builds (older it is in both directories) (I think the issue is that we never do make install, thus have dependency on internal artifact placement) Specific to RV, there is a bug in binutils causing the standard extensions not being added to disassembler if we pass in NULL. This no way near perfect, but at least we can build hsdis with any contemporary binutils. Todo better I think we need to build and install binutils to check the version and then use that version to figure out what options to use when re-building and re-installing binutils for hsdis. I asked tool-chain people about our issues, they said, you can't do that. I.e. have source dependencies on many binutils versions. As RV is new and have new instructions added to it frequently we really need to be able to build with bleeding-edge binutils. (capstone RV is not actively worked on, llvm have many more dependencies) ------------- Commit messages: - Binutils fix Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/15138/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=15138&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8295795 Stats: 42 lines in 2 files changed: 34 ins; 0 del; 8 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/15138.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk.git pull/15138/head:pull/15138 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/15138
